Masterclass in Parent Carer Trauma for Practitioners

5.0(1)

By Born at the Right Time

An E-Learning Course by Born at the Right Time Created by Rachel Wright, with leading voices in the field Welcome to the Masterclass in Parent Carer Trauma Going beyond awareness to meaningful action This powerful and timely course explores the trauma experienced by parent carers. Drawing on the latest research and the expertise of professionals with lived experience, this course offers practical, responsive strategies for professionals working across health, education, and social care. Parent carers are often navigating extreme and ongoing stress while advocating for their children and working alongside hard working practitioners within often fragmented and uncoordinated systems. This course helps to understand, recognise, and respond to that trauma with empathy, authority, and actionable care. As with all Born at the Right Time training, this course will be Rooted in Lived Experience Informed by Research Delivering Actionable Solutions Who This Course is For? This masterclass is for professionals working in Special Educational Needs (SEN), health, education, and social care, including those in face-to-face, managerial, and commissioning roles. This is not a course in clinical diagnosis or treatment of trauma. Rather, it is designed for the many non-trauma specialist professionals who routinely work alongside families. It is for the myriad of practitioners whose interactions can either unintentionally cause harm or become a source of empowerment. What You’ll Gain A clear understanding of how trauma is expressed in parent carers Insight into systems-generated trauma and the unintended potential harm from repetitive assessments, fragmented services, and disempowering practices Knowledge of the impact of trauma on parent carer health and well-being, including suicide risk The unseen negative impact parent carer trauma has on practitioners and the systems they work within Practical strategies to create safe, trusting relationships with parent carers Communication strategies that prioritise empathy, respect, and emotional regulation A trauma-informed lens that supports collaboration, co-production and personalised care Reflection opportunities to consider how you and your service can make meaningful change Learn From Leading Voices This course features insights and teaching from some of the most respected names in the fields of trauma, disability, and parent carer lived experience including: Dr Joanna Griffin – Counselling Psychologist, parent carer, author of Day by Day, and founder of Affinity Hub Dr Julie Calveley – Learning Disability Nurse, Founder of NAC, specialising in trauma and wellbeing in people with complex disabilities Dr Ana Aiello – completed her PhD at the School of Law, University of Leeds. Currently working as the Cerebra Postdoctoral Researcher at Leeds University. Dr Siobhan O’Dwyer – Associate Professor in Social Care at Birmingham University, leading international research into parent carer suicide and homicide Dr George Julian – Journalist and knowledge transfer consultant focused on the deaths of learning disabled and autistic people Elly Chapple – Dynamic speaker, inclusion advocate and change-maker, known for her message to #FlipTheNarrative Why This Matters Parent carers save the UK economy over £132 billion annually through their unpaid labour (Carers UK, 2020), yet face chronic stress and deteriorating health outcomes (Miodrag & Hodapp, 2010; Fraser, 2023). Systems often inadvertently cause further trauma, eroding trust and damaging relationships. As a practitioner, you have the power to reduce harm and promote a safe, collaborative environment. By understanding trauma and responding with empathy, clarity, and purpose—you can help create environments that promote safety, dignity, and growth. Course Features Interactive content and reflection activities Real-life case studies and downloadable tools Evidence-informed strategies you can apply immediately Learn at your own pace, anytime Certificate of completion provided Testimonials Take the Next Step Join a community of professionals who are reimagining what it means to work with families.

We strive to amplify marginalised voices and challenge the structural inequalities that continue to impact outcomes for parent carers and their children. Content Warning This course contains accounts of traumatic lived experiences, including discussions of suicide, homicide, and systemic injustice.

RECORDING: Creating sensory backpacks for families with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

By Kids in Museums

Creating sensory backpacks for families with Special Educational Needs (SEND) Webinar recording Do you want to create sensory backpacks for families with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), but don’t know where to start? About this training In the UK, 11% of children are disabled and in England, 18.4% have special educational needs. Adding non-disabled siblings to these numbers increases this potential audience to a fifth of children in the UK.

Their economic impact, promoting a longer dwell time and potentially greater spend in the museum, pays back an initial investment quickly. In this session, SEND in Museums Consultant Sam Bowen will guide you through how to create a sensory backpack, drawing on her own professional museum learning knowledge and lived experience as a parent of a child with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
